Publisher's Synopsis
""Natural Stability And The Parachute Principle In Airplanes"" is a book written by W. LeMaitre in 1911. The book discusses the concept of natural stability in airplanes, which refers to the ability of an aircraft to maintain its orientation and stability without the need for constant control inputs from the pilot. LeMaitre also introduces the idea of the parachute principle, which involves using a parachute as a means of slowing down or stopping an aircraft in an emergency situation. He explores the practical applications of this principle and its potential to enhance the safety of aircraft.The book provides a detailed analysis of the physics and mechanics of flight, including the role of air resistance, lift, and gravity. It also discusses the design and construction of airplanes, as well as the importance of proper maintenance and safety procedures.Overall, ""Natural Stability And The Parachute Principle In Airplanes"" is a comprehensive guide to the principles of flight and aircraft design, with a focus on safety and stability. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in aviation, from pilots and engineers to aviation enthusiasts and historians.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
